“ Le  Givre — Winter  Solitude.” 

38  X 25 

Collection  of  Laurent  Richard,  Paris. 

Collection  of  Baron  de  Beurnonville,  Paris. 

One  frosty  day,  in  order  to  distract  his  mind  from  a disturbing  promise 
made  to  Jules  Dupre,  Rousseau  set  himself  to  paint,  upon  a white,  unpre- 
pared canvas,  the  hills  of  Valmondois  as  seen  a mile  away  across  the  Oise, 
along  the  Des  Forgets  road. 

The  composition  could  not  be  more  simple.  Little  hillocks  heaped  in  the 
foreground  are  covered  with  half-melted  snow,  and  the  sun,  red  in  the 
midst  of  a leaden  sky,  is  seen  dying  and  threatening  through  the  clouds. 
A dreary,  overwhelming  spectacle,  in  which  Rousseau  shows  himself  great 
in  depth  of  expression. 

“ L’Effet  de  Givre  ” is  a work  modern  in  its  spirit  and  in  its  poetry. 

Rousseau  executed  this  remarkable  picture,  under  great  excitement,  in 
eight  days.  I would  not  believe  this  miracle  until  Dupre  assured  me  of  it. 
Whoever  has  carried  in  his  hand  the  load  of  a palette  will  ask  how  it  is 
possible  for  an  artist  to  arrive  at  such  a harmony  of  tone,  how  he  could 


8 


amass  and  co-ordinate  such  a solidity  of  painting  in  so  short  a period,  when 
so  many  skillful  men  require  successions  of  time,  and  alluvion  of  works, 
to  bring  forth,  after  years  of  patience,  such  a resounding  symphony. 

I ask  the  explanation  from  men  of  his  calling,  from  master  painters  in 
the  arts  and  sciences.  All  answer  me  with  the  shrug  of  the  doubter  or  of 
the  astounded — yet  the  fact  remains. 

And  this  admirable  picture  was  but  another  sad  trial  in  Rousseau’s 
artistic  life.  He  was  unable  to  dispose  of  it.  No  one  desired  this  pathetic 
drama.  Bought  simply  to  make  it  sell,  by  M.  Paul  Perier,  an  enthusiastic 
admirer  of  Rousseau,  it  passed  into  the  hands  of  a dealer,  who  traded  it 
with  Troyon  for  a study  of  sheep.  At  Troyon’s  sale,  for  the  first  time  it 
was  seen  in  its  true  light,  having  required  twenty  years  to  make  it  under- 
stood.

“The  Sheepfold  (Moonlight).” 

24  X 18 

“ Hundred  Masterpieces  ” Exhibition,  Paris,  1883. 

Albert  Wolff,  the  well-known  French  critic,  says  of  this  work: 

“ ‘ The  Sheepfold  ’ is  a masterpiece.  The  mist  wraps  the  whole  scene, 
the  shepherd  is  enveloped  in  his  cloak,  and  drives  into  the  enclosure  his 
flock  of  sheep,  which  huddle  together  under  the  keenness  of  the  night ; the 
moon  lights  up  the  scene  with  its  pale  and  undecided  radiance — farther  than 
the  eye  can  see,  a silence  hangs  over  the  fields.  The  canvas  is  only  some 
twenty  inches  wide,  and  it  produces  the  effect  of  a work  of  the  vastest  pro- 
portions— poetry  penetrates,  solitude  invades  the  fancy  so  completely  that 
we  think  no  more  of  the  size  of  the  picture.  It  becomes  immense,  like 
Nature. 

“ Nothing  can  be  simpler  than  the  composition  of  this  picture,  and  noth- 
ing more  striking  than  the  verity  of  its  impression — all  bespeak  the  hour 
when  mysterious  noises  begin  to  arrive  from  distant  parts  of  the  plain, 
while  the  wan  light  of  the  moon  gives  every  object  an  unnatural  and  puz- 
zling shape.”

“ The  Triumph  of  Titus.” 

12  x 1 7 

From  the  Artist. 

Opus  CCLXIX. 


The  Artist  writes : “ My  small  canvas  represents  the  offering  after  the 
‘Triumph  of  Titus’  of  a part  of  the  spoil  brought  from  the  Temple  of 
Jerusalem  to  the  Temple  of  Jupiter  Victor,  at  the  Palatine. 

“ There  are  many  traces  left  of  this  temple  among  the  ruins  of  the  palaces 
of  the  Caesars,  such  as  the  block  of  masonry  on  which  it  was  built,  portions 
of  the  columns,  and  half  the  round  altar.  The  steps,  moreover,  are  in  many 
parts  still  standing,  as  indicated  on  the  plans  published  by  Rossi  when 
excavating  for  Napoleon  III.  They  led  to  the  Imperial  Loggia  on  the 
Circus  Maximus,  where,  after  a triumph,  the  people  were  entertained  by 
games,  etc. 


*********** 


“ After  returning  ‘ Thanks  to  the  Gods,’  the  spoil  has  been  deposited 
among  the  chanters  on  the  uppermost  terrace;  the  next  is  occupied  by 
priests  officiating  round  the  head  altar ; and  on  the  third  stand  other  priests 
holding  palm  leaves  in  honor  of  the  ceremony.  The  officers  of  the  different 
arms  who  have  distinguished  themselves  during  the  war  are  under  the 
archway,  bearing  branches  of  laurel. 

“ Before  them  walks  Domitian,  brother  and  successor  of  Titus,  talking, 
as  he  goes,  to  his  niece  Julia,  of  whom  he  was  proverbially  fond,  and  who 
is  now  with  her  father,  according  to  a custom  which  exacted  that  a 
triumphator  should  be  accompanied  by  his  youngest  child. 

“ Titus,  clad  in  gold  armor,  holds  his  daughter’s  hand  and  is  preceded 
by  his  father,  Vespasian,  who  has  been  officiating  as  high  priest  and  carries, 
accordingly,  the  patena  used  at  such  ceremonies.  Twelve  lictors  clear  the 
way  before  him  (these  are,  of  course,  but  partly  visible). 

“ It  is  a well-known  fact  that  on  such  occasions  the  Imperial  family  wore 
silk.”

Paris 


The  London  Athenceum  of  January  30,  1858,  spoke  of  it  as  follows: 

“ It  appeared  at  the  fag  end  of  the  last  French  Exhibition,  but  too  late  to 
receive  the  universal  admiration  due  to  its  great  merits,  and  too  late  to 
receive  from  us  more  than  a line  of  notice.  The  scene  is  the  Bois  de 
Boulogne — time,  daybreak ; the  sky  lurid  with  a dull  yellow,  curdling  fog. 
The  duel  has  just  taken  place.  The  one  who  is  pricked  to  the  heart  is  a 
Pierrot — one  of  those  Scaramouch  clowns  that  the  Italians  introduced  into 
France  in  the  days  of  Bellerose  and  Gros  Gentlareme.  His  face  is  a three- 
act  tragedy  reduced  to  one  look ; a gray  glaze  is  over  the  eye ; the  passionate, 
sensual  mouth  is  just  dropping  with  a horrible,  agonizing  grimace,  that 
conveys  to  you  the  very  gasp  and  sickness  of  the  first  sensation  of  a vital 
wound.  The  face  is  drawn  with  the  pain ; and  from  under  the  white  fool’s 
cap  the  death-sweat  trickles  through  the  white  fool’s  paint  still  on  the 
vicious  cheeks,  just  as  raindrops  do  through  the  silvery  mist  on  a winter 
window-pane.  Plis  legs  are  thrust  out  stiff  and  straight  in  the  broad,  loose 
fool’s  dress,  and  one  hand  still  holds  the  thin,  sharp  sword,  and  another 
clutches  at  life.  Pierrot — poor,  mad,  stabbed  Pierrot — is  held  in  the  half 
careless  arms  of  a Due  de  Guise,  in  the  full  white  ruffles,  short  black  coat, 
and  slanted,  close  cap  of  that  Bartholomean  age.  Sorry,  or  careless,  you 
hardly  know  which,  for  his  dark  face  is  bent  with  a sullen  anxiety  over 
the  sped  man.  A Doge  of  Venice,  in  a great  flaunting  robe  of  flowered 
green  satin,  with  another  over  it  of  scarlet,  edged  with  deep,  stiff  gold 
lace,  bends  over  Pierrot,  groping,  with  horror  that  grinding  thrust ! There 
is  the  sword — dropped  as  it  was  drawn  from  the  cloven  heart ! 

“ The  harlequin  has  a great-coat  thrust  on  by  one  sleeve  like  a hussar 
jacket,  just  as,  hot  and  fired  with  brandy,  they  tumbled  into  the  coach  and 
drove  straight  for  the  lonely  wood  outside  the  Boulevards.  How  we  long 
that  that  bent  man  in  the  long  skin  cloak  and  fur  hood,  with  the  tasseled 
moccasins,  and  hair  tied  up  in  a knot,  with  gaudy  red  and  yellow  macaw 
feathers  stuck  through,  would  turn,  that  we  might  see  and  profit  by  his 
anguish ! Well  may  the  frozen  trees  shake  their  long  black,  spectral 
fingers  over  the  scene — the  horrible  sequel  of  a night  of  vice. 

“ And  there  are  two  coaches  seen  through  the  fog,  with  the  skeleton- 
looking horses,  fit  only  to  draw  an  orphan's  hearse  to  a cheap  funeral,  with 
their  carrion  heads  drooping  with  the  night’s  toil  and  roll.  One  coachman 
is  holding  up  his  hand  in  horror  at  the  scene;  he  wonders  if  any  one  will 
pay  his  fare,  or  if  he  will  be  arrested.  He  does  not  like  carrying  home  the 
dead  fool.  The  other  waits  and  listens  ungesticulating. — There,  too — the 
two  long  paths  of  stamped  footprints  in  the  snow ; the  one  right,  the  other 
left.  They  drive  round  to  avoid  the  gendarmes,  who  don’t  like  to  see  two 
cabs  driving  together  at  odd  hours  to  the  duellist’s  wood. 

“ And  this  is  the  end  of  it.  Those  two  trodden  plats  of  snow,  a dead 
body  and  a guilty  heart,  all  to  come  from  that  war  of  music  and  of  voices, 
that  deluge  of  shouts  and  laughter  and  screams,  that  whirl  of  feet-stamps, 
that  jostle  and  hell-pool  of  vicious,  leering  faces  and  wanton  eyes,  that 


1 7 


fog  and  eddy  of  colors  and  sound,  of  hot  patchouli,  of  rose,  of  frangipanni, 
of  muslin  and  ribbons,  of  fools,  goblins,  peasant  girls,  witches  and  monks— 
and  all  for  what? 

“ There  is  an  epitome  of  a hundred  passionate  novels  in  this  painting, 
which  is  worthy  of  M.  Delaroche’s  best  pupil. 

“ There  is  room  in  it  for  all  shades  of  painting,  from  the  speckle  of 
Teniers  to  the  willowy  sweep  of  Rubens.  There  is  room  for  Vernet’s  im- 
petuosity and  M.  Gerome’s  care. 

“ A finer  moral  lesson  than  this  of  M.  Gerome’s  has  not  been  taught  since 
Hogarth’s  time.”

Mounted  on  a white  horse,  his  gray  overcoat  thrown  back  from  his 
uniform,  leaving  his  escort  behind  him,  Napoleon  has  ascended  a knoll 
from  which  he  can  view  the  field  of  to-morrow’s  battle. 

His  brow  is  thoughtful,  and  his  eyes  wander  beyond  the  ground  where 
the  game  of  his  destiny  is  to  be  played,  trying  as  it  were  to  read  the  future. 

The  sky  is  banked  with  heavy  clouds,  and  the  pale  sun  which  illumines 
it  is  no  longer  the  sun  of  Austerlitz.

A stirring  picture  by  this  great  master,  and  perhaps  the  most  notable 
and  faithful  representation  on  canvas  of  this  scourge  of  Italy,  which  has 
existed  even  in  the  present  century.  The  story  is  graphically  told ; the 
overturned  coach,  the  murdered  postilion,  the  captured  treasures,  the 
travelers  hurried  away  for  the  hope  of  a future  ransom,  the  sudden  advent 
of  the  Papal  troops,  the  rush  of  their  attack,  their  partial  victory,  and  the 
strange  contradiction  of  the  brigands  appealing  to  the  Blessed  Virgin  for 
succor.

“ Hundred  Masterpieces  ” Exhibition,  Paris,  1883. 

From  Albert  Wolff’s  Criticisms  on  “ The  Hundred  Masterpieces.” 

“ When  Delacroix  paints  the  magnificent  Christ  upon  the  Cross,  a canvas 
which  appeared  as  one  of  the  capital  masterpieces  of  this  exhibition  which 
reckoned  so  many,  it  is  the  supreme  drama  which  inspires  him ; what  he 
desires  to  render  is  the  grand  crime  of  the  crucifixion,  and  not  the  crucified 
himself.  This  Son  of  God  is  not  the  traditional  Christ,  correctly  nailed 
to  the  Cross ; it  is  the  visionary  apparition  bearing  testimony  against  religi- 


21 


ous  persecution,  the  Martyr  who  has  suffered  his  doom  and  whom  we  see 
across  the  dreadful  solitude,  which  is  the  image  of  his  abandonment.  He 
cares  little  to  paint  correctly  an  academic  study  according  to  the  routine 
formula ; what  he  wants  to  paint  is  the  grand  drama,  the  conclusive  moral 
impression;  his  Christ  has  lived,  his  flesh  has  thrilled,  his  heart  has  bled 
in  truth;  he  is  the  incarnation  of  all  martyrdom;  of  consummate  crime  left 
in  the  midst  of  the  indifference  of  nature.  There  are  no  tears,  no  lamen- 
tations to  communicate  an  emotion;  it  exhales  all  naturally  from  the  sole 
figure;  and  it  suffices  for  depicting  the  entire  horror  of  the  scene  and  for 
filling  the  soul  with  veneration  and  profoundest  pity.  This  is  the  effect 
of  art  in  its  loftiest  development,  art  whose  influence  is  terrifying  in  its 
simplicity,  and  thus  we  find  the  artist  in  all  his  works. 

*********** 

“ The  controlling  note  in  Eugene  Delacroix’s  painting  is  the  dramatic 
note.  We  might  say  of  him  that  he  is  the  Shakspere  of  art;  he  has  the 
great  author’s  majesty  of  concession,  his  art  of  painting  a character  in  a 
few  strokes,  and  his  power  of  color.  That  which  interests  him  is  the 
drama  of  all  epochs,  of  every  literature  and  of  every  place. 

“ What  Delacroix  occupies  himself  about,  what  moves  him,  is  the  drama.”

“ The  Hemicycle.” 

IOO  X 16 
Dated  1853. 

“ L’Hemicycle  du  Palais  des  Beaux  Arts  ” is  the  title  given  in  France  to 
the  grand  composition  which  decorates  the  semicircular  wall  of  the  Am- 
phitheatre of  the  School  of  the  Fine  Arts  at  Paris. 

The  Academy  of  the  Fine  Arts  at  Paris  is  dedicated  to  the  study  and 
advancement  of  Painting,  Sculpture  and  Architecture,  and  it  will  be  well 
to  bear  in  mind  that,  besides  the  usual  Halls  for  exhibition  and  study,  and 
ample  accommodations  for  Professors  and  Students,  the  same  building 
comprises  a very  fine  collection  of  Monuments,  architectural  and  sculptural, 
the  remains  of  Ancient  French  Art,  which,  after  the  ravages  of  the  first 
French  Revolution,  were  brought  together  by  M.  Lenoir  and  ultimately 
placed  within  these  walls.  On  entering  this  extensive  edifice,  and  after 
passing  through  the  three  open  quadrangular  courts,  we  ascend  by  a flight 
of  steps  to  a hall  or  amphitheatre,  destined  for  the  delivery  of  inaugural 
discourses  and  the  distribution  of  the  prizes  awarded  to  the  students.-  The 
chairs  of  the  Professors  occupy  the  diameter  of  this  hall.  The  semicircular 
benches  for  the  students  are  in  front ; beyond  and  around  them  extends  the 
semicircular  wall  (L’Hemicycle)  already  mentioned;  and  the  whole  is  well 
lighted  from  above. 

In  the  year  1837  it  was  suggested  to  the  Government  that  this  semicir- 
cular wall  should  be  decorated  with  some  appropriate  subject,  instead  of 
being  left  bare  or  of  one  uniform  color.  The  suggestion  was  followed  out 
by  the  Minister  of  the  Interior,  and  the  commission  was  given  to  M.  Paul 
Delaroche.  His  first  sketch,  which  comprised  not  more  than  twenty-four 
figures,  being  approved  of,  the  contract  was  signed. 

It  will  be  immediately  perceived  that,  on  the  part  of  the  artist,  these 
terms  have  not  been  strictly  adhered  to.  Inspired  with  a noble  ambition  to 


27 


leave  behind  him  such  work  as  should  connect  his  name  honorably  with 
those  of  the  great  men  who  had  gone  before  him,  and  justify  the  choice 
of  his  country  and  the  general  applause  of  Europe  (for  his  was  already  a 
European  fame),  Delaroche,  while  adhering  to  his  first  conception,  gradu- 
ally enlarged  it,  till  the  twenty-four  figures  had  extended  to  seventy-five, 
and  after  nearly  four  years  of  incessant  study,  the  magnificent  composition 
as  we  now  behold  it  was  unveiled  to  an  impatient  public.  It  received  its 
due  meed  of  admiration  and  applause,  as  one  of  the  greatest,  if  not  the 
greatest,  of  the  productions  of  modern  times ; and  it  is  proper  to  record 
that  on  its  completion  the  high-minded  artist  absolutely  refused  any  further 
remuneration  than  that  which  he  at  first  stipulated  for,  a sum  which 
scarcely  repaid  the  cost  of  labor  and  material;  the  thought  and  the  time 
were  given,  or  rather  were  munificently  consecrated,  to  art  and  to  his 
country. 

The  space  covered  by  the  painting  measures  not  less  than  fifty  feet  in 
length,  by  about  fifteen  in  height.  The  figures  in  front  are  colossal;  those 
farther  removed  are  life-size.  There  are  here  no  tricks  of  art  by  way  of 
enhancing  the  effect  of  some  figures  at  the  expense  of  others.  The  whole 
is  lighted  up  by  a broad  daylight  from  above,  the  real  light  and  the  artificial 
light  being  the  same.  The  painting  is  in  oil ; but  being  on  a curved,  not  a 
flat  surface,  the  inconvenience  of  reflected  lights  is  avoided,  and  every  part 
is  equally  illuminated.  All  the  personages  are  still ; the  animation  is  in 
the  expression  and  attitude,  without  movement,  which  gives  to  the  multi- 
tude of  figures  a sort  of  Elysian  repose  befitting  an  assemblage  of  beings 
who  belong  no  more  to  this  noisy,  changeable  world,  but  to  one  all-peaceful, 
all-divine. 

The  picture  upon  the  ivalls  of  the  “Beaux  Arts”  was  executed  under  the 
supervision  of  M.  Delaroche  by  himself  and  his  pupils.  Very  unfortunately, 
it  was  partly  destroyed  by  fire,  and  repaired  by  other  hands  without  his 
supervision.  The  work  before  us,  on  the  contrary , zuas  touched  by  the 
brush  of  the  master  alone,  who  finished  it  with  such  care  and  with  such 
satisfaction  to  himself,  that  he  said:  “If  my  name  is  to  be  known  to 

posterity,  it  will  be  through  this  picture.”  It  was  also  from  this  canvas  that 
Henriquel  Dupont  executed  his  great  engraving. 

The  subject,  as  conceived  by  the  painter,  is  the  distribution  of  the  prizes 
awarded  to  successful  talent  in  the  presence  of  an  assemblage  of  the 
greatest  artists  of  every  age  and  country,  from  the  era  of  Pericles  down 
to  that  of  Louis  XIV.  The  selection  of  personages,  where  only  a certain 
number  could  be  introduced — the  arrangement  of  the  figures,  where  all 
were  to  be  placed  nearly  in  a line — the  grouping  and  attitudes  of  the 
various  characters — presented  some  extraordinary  difficulties,  which  will 
be  fully  appreciated  by  every  one  who  has  reflected  on  the  principles  of  art, 
and  overcome,  it  must  be  allowed,  with  the  most  wonderful  judgment, 
taste  and  skill.  The  artist,  after  long  and  mature  consideration,  rejects  the 
formality  of  a chronological  series,  and  that  sort  of  monotony  which  must 


28 


have  resulted  from  grouping  the  figures  into  separate  nations  and  schools. 
The  great  men  here  assembled  in  friendly  convocation  have  already  taken 
their  places  in  the  Temple  of  Immortality,  where  earthly  distinctions  of 
time  and  place  are  at  an  end.  Yet,  to  avoid  all  heterogeneous  confusion, 
they  were  to  be  linked  with  each  other,  united  in  the  fancy  of  the  spectator, 
and  associated  with  the  living  congregation  over  which  they  in  a manner 
preside,  by  some  leading  idea,  which,  pervading  the  entire  composition, 
should  bring  into  harmonious  unity  the  multifarious  variety  of  figures, 
characters  and  costumes.  Before  entering  into  details,  it  is  worth  while 
to  consider  how  this  idea  has  been  carried  out,  and  with  what  admirable 
skill  the  scenic  disposition  of  the  subject  has  resolved  itself  into  one  great 
whole. 

The  background  represents  the  portico  of  a great  temple  of  the  Ionic 
order,  which  may  be  regarded  as  the  temple  of  Fame  or  Immortality.  In 
the  centre,  in  a species  of  recess,  is  placed  a throne  or  tribunal,  with  an 
ascent  of  four  marble  steps.  On  this  throne  are  seated  Apelles,  the  painter 
(37)  ; on  his  right  Ictinus,  the  architect  of  the  Parthenon  and  the  temple 
of  Phigalia  (36)  ; on  his  left  the  sculptor  Phidias  (38).  These,  of  all  the 
figures,  are  the  most  removed  from  the  actual  scene,  and  seated  in  majestic 
quietude,  and  crowned  with  laurels,  they  appear  to  contemplate  the  assemb- 
lage of  artists  over  which  they  preside  in  right  of  their  antique  fame. 

In  front  of  this  tribunal,  and  lower  down,  stand  four  female  figures, 
most  beautifully  and  wisely  introduced,  as  imparting  to  the  whole  com- 
position a softer  grace  and  more  contrasted  variety  in  character  and  cos- 
tume than  would  otherwise  have  been  possible.  These  represent  collectively 
and  most  poetically  the  theory  of  art;  separately,  they  personify  the  four 
great  influences  which  have  successively  ruled  the  manifestations  of  the 
human  mind  as  developed  into  form  in  the  fine  arts.  First,  to  the  left  of 
the  spectators,  sits  Greek  Art  simply  draped,  in  calm  and  elegant  repose 
(35)  1 opposite  to  her,  Roman  Art,  more  sternly  grave,  and  wearing  the 
diadem  of  Empire  (40).  Next  to  Greek  Art,  and  traditionally  allied  to  her, 
stands  a lovely  figure  in  long  drapery,  at  once  graceful  and  decorous,  with 
eyes  upturned  and  looks  commercing  with  the  skies.  This  is  Gothic  or 
Mediaeval  Art,  inspired  by  the  purer  influences  of  Christianity ; beside  her 
stands  the  model  of  a Gothic  Cathedral  (34).  In  face  and  figure  this 
charming  creation  is  said  to  be  the  portrait  of  the  artist’s  wife,  the  beau- 
tiful daughter  of  Horace  Vernet.  Opposite  to  her,  in  strong  contrast, 
stands  a figure  representing  that  period  of  art  which  we  call  the  Renais- 
sance, and  which,  almost  immediately  on  the  revival  of  classical  learning, 
superseded  the  religious  influences  of  the  middle  ages  (41).  Beautiful, 
bold,  half  undraped,  “ robes  loosely  flowing,  hair  as  free,”  with  jeweled 
bracelets  on  her  full,  rounded  arms,  yet  with  a sort  of  luxurious  grandeur 
in  the  pose  and  physiognomy,  she  well  represents  that  style  of  art  which 
Bramante,  Michael  Angelo,  Paul  Veronese  and  Rubens  carried  out  with 
such  a prodigality  of  talent,  such  a splendid  license.  In  front  of  this  most 


29 


beautiful  and  significant  group,  and  so  placed  as  not  to  interfere  with  them, 
is  a half-kneeling  female  figure  representing  the  Genius  of  Fame  (34),  at 
her  side  a heap  of  laurel  crowns,  which  she  seems  in  the  act  of  distributing 
to  the  successful  candidates. 

The  three  famous  old  Grecians  and  the  five  allegorical  female  figures 
compose  this  central  group — a sort  of  vision  combining  the  real  and  ideal ; 
the  action  of  the  last-named  figure  connecting  the  whole  with  the  living, 
breathing  humanity  supposed  to  be  assembled  below ; and  the  four  alle- 
gorical figures  connecting  it  with  the  groups  which  extend  on  either  side. 
Some  of  these  personages  are  seated  behind  on  a kind  of  marble  bench 
extending  in  front  of  the  portico,  and  others  are  standing  more  in  the  fore- 
ground. To  the  right  of  the  spectator  are  assembled  the  famous  Archi- 
tects ; opposite  to  them,  on  the  left,  the  most  celebrated  Sculptors.  Beyond 
these  again  on  either  side,  appear  the  greatest  painters  who  have  flourished 
from  the  revival  of  art  to  the  seventeenth  century.  On  the  right  those 
who  were  eminent  as  designers,  and  who  founded  their  art  on  the  study 
of  human  character  and  the  principles  of  human  form.  On  the  left,  we  find 
assembled  those  Painters  who  were  most  remarkable  as  colorists,  whose 
art  was  founded  on  the  appearance  of  general  Nature,  the  effects  of  light 
and  shade,  and  the  aspects  of  social  life.  Such  is  the  original  and  truly 
magnificent  conception  of  the  artist,  and  such  the  distribution  of  his  subject 
considered  as  a whole. — Mrs.  Jameson.

“ Syria — The  Night  Watch.” 

6s  x 37 

Dated  1SS0. 

Syria  is  a country  of  high  historic  and  sacred  interest.  Take  it  in  its  full 
extent — including  Palestine — and  no  country  in  the  world  can  be  com- 
pared with  it. 

As  much  as  any  nation  is  now,  Phoenicia,  a province  of  Syria,  was, 

“ thirty  centuries  ago,”  “ the  mistress  of  the  seas.”  Merchants  of  every 
nation  met  and  traded  in  her  rich  marts.  She  was  also  the  cradle  of 
manufacture.  Tyrian  purple  was  the  garb  and  symbol  of  royalty  in  every 
land,  and  Homer  tells  us  before  his  day  a Sidonian  robe  was  considered  a 
gift  of  sufficient  splendor  to  propitiate  the  angry  patron  goddess  of  Troy 
(II.  vi.  288). 

Damascus,  the  capital  of  Syria,  is  confessedly  the  oldest  city  in  the  world, 
and  Antioch,  another  capital,  was  the  third  city  of  the  Roman  Empire; 
and  here,  eighteen  centuries  ago,  the  name  we  bear,  and  in  which  we 
glory — the  name  Christian — was  invented. 


30 


No  country  of  anything  like  its  extent  has  passed  through  so  many 
political  changes  and  vicissitudes  as  Syria. 

Some  of  the  ruins  of  Syria,  in  their  massive  proportions  and  architectural 
splendor,  rank  among  the  finest  in  the  world. 

Besides  the  general  ruin  and  decay  of  the  country  as  presented  in  its 
present  aspect,  of  the  ancient  great  cities  of  Syria,  no  less  than  nine  are 
now  completely  desolate — namely,  Apamea,  Laodicea-ad-Libanum,  Seleucia, 
Pieria,  Orthosia,  Area,  Chalcis,  Phaeno,  Bozrah,  and  Salcha ; eight  have 
dwindled  down  to  poor  and  miserable  villages — namely,  Heliopolis,  Pal- 
myra, Tyre,  Arodus,  Riblah,  Gebal,  Edree  and  Kenath. 

Antioch,  the  capital  in  the  age  of  Roman  splendor,  Sidon,  the  ancient 
capital  of  Phoenicia,  and  Hamath,  one  of  the  primeval  strongholds  of  the 
Canaanites,  are  now  small,  decaying  towns.

Christian  Martyrs — The  Last  Prayer.” 

59  x 34 

Painted  1863-18S3. 


Paris,  July  15,  1883. 

My  Dear  Sir  : — I send  you  a few  notes  about  my  picture,  “ The  Christian 
Martyrs — Last  Prayer,”  which  you  have  bought.  I regret  to  have  made 
you  wait  for  it  so  long,  but  I had  a difficult  task,  being  determined  not  to 
leave  it  until  I accomplished  all  of  which  I was  capable. 

This  picture  has  been  upon  my  easel  for  over  twenty  years.  I have 
repainted  it  from  the  beginning  three  times ; have  rehandled  and  rechanged 
both  the  effect  and  the  composition,  always,  however,  preserving  my  first 
idea. 

This,  therefore,  is  really  the  third  canvas  which  you  receive. 

The  scene  is  laid  in  the  “ Circus  Maximus,”  which  might  readily  be  mis- 
taken for  an  amphitheatre,  as  in  the  picture  only  the  end  of  the  circus,  and 
not  the  straight  sides,  is  visible.  But  you  will  see  on  the  left  the  “ Meta,” 
which  ends  the  “ Spina,”  and  is  the  goal  around  which  the  chariots  made 
their  turns  in  the  races,  as  I have  indicated  by  the  tracks  of  the  wheels  in 
the  sand. 


38 


The  Circus  Maximus  was  one  of  the  mightiest  monuments  ever  built. 
It  held  more  than  one  hundred  and  fifty  thousand  spectators.  Its  left 
touched  the  Palace  of  the  Caesars,  whence  a subterranean  passage  led 
directly  to  the  Emperor’s  loge. 

In  the  time  of  the  Caesars,  Christians  were  cruelly  persecuted,  and  many 
were  sentenced  to  be  devoured  by  wild  beasts. 

This  is  the  subject  of  my  picture. 

As  they  were  religious  enthusiasts,  to  die  was  a joy,  and  they  cared  little 
for  the  animals,  their  only  thought  being  to  remain  firm  to  the  last.  And 
rarely  indeed  was  there  found  a case  of  apostasy. 

The  Roman  prisons  were  terrible  dungeons,  and  Christians,  being  often 
long  confined  before  the  sacrifice,  when  led  into  the  circus  were  emaciated 
by  disease  and  covered  only  with  rags.  Their  hearts  alone  remained  strong, 
their  faith  alone  remained  unshaken. 

In  the  middle  distance  I have  placed  those  destined  to  be  burned  alive. 
They  were  usually  tied  upon  crosses,  and  smeared  with  pitch  to  feed  the 
flames.  Alluding  to  this,  Tacitus  says : “ These  Christians  should  cer- 

tainly be  put  to  death ; but  wherefore  smear  them  with  pitch,  and  burn 
them  like  torches?”  His  sympathy,  however,  went  no  further. 

It  was  the  custom  to  starve  the  wild  beasts  for  several  days  beforehand, 
and  they  were  admitted  to  the  arena  up  inclined  planes.  Coming  from  the 
dark  dens  below,  their  first  action  was  of  astonishment  upon  facing  the 
bright  daylight  and  the  great  mass  of  people  surrounding  them. 

They  did  then  as  does  to-day  the  Spanish  bull  when  turned  into  the 
arena;  entering  with  a bound  he  suddenly  halts  in  the  very  middle  of  a 
stride. 

This  moment  I have  sought  to  represent. 

I consider  this  picture  one  of  my  most  studied  works,  the  one  for  which 
I have  given  myself  most  trouble. 

Is  it  a success  ? 

Very  truly, 

(Signed)  J.  L.  Gerome.

“ Edict  of  Charles  V.” 

92  X 54 
Dated  1859. 

From  Collection  of  Count  Liederkirke,  for  whom  it  was  painted. 

U.  Exposition,  1867. 

The  publication  of  the  Edict  of  Charles  V in  the  year  1550,  which  in- 
troduced the  Inquisition  into  the  Netherlands. 


By  this  edict,  or  “ placard,”  as  it  was  called,  it  was  ordained  that  all  who 
were  convicted  of  heresy  should  suffer  death  by  fire,  by  the  pit,  or  by  the 
sword — in  other  words,  should  be  burnt  alive,  be  buried  alive,  or  be  be- 
headed. These  terrible  penalties  were  incurred  by  all  who  dealt  in  heretical 
books,  or  copied  or  bought  them ; by  all  who  held  or  attended  conventicles, 
by  all  who  disputed  on  the  Scriptures  in  public  or  private,  by  all  who 
preached  or  defended  the  doctrines  of  the  Reformation.  Informers  were 
encouraged  by  the  promise  of  one-half  of  the  confiscated  estate  of  the 
heretic.  No  suspected  person  was  allowed  to  make  any  donation,  or  sell 
any  of  his  effects,  or  dispose  of  them  by  will.  Finally,  the  courts  were 
instructed  to  grant  no  remission  or  mitigation  of  punishment  under  the 
fallacious  idea  of  mercy  to  the  convicted  party — and  it  was  made  penal  for 
the  friends  of  the  accused  to  solicit  such  indulgence  on  his  behalf. 

From  Prescott’s  History  of  the  Reign  of  Philip  H,  Book  H,  Chap.  I. 

This  edict  was  renewed  by  an  ordinance  of  Philip  II,  dated  at  Gand, 
August  20,  1556. 


This  picture  was  painted  by  Leys  after  his  second  journey  to  Germany, 
at  his  best  period,  one  year  before  he  began  the  decoration  of  the  Hotel 
de  Ville  at  Antwerp,  and  was,  for  the  first  time,  exhibited  at  the  National 
Exhibition  of  Antwerp  in  1861. 

The  scene  is  the  public  market-place.  In  the  midst  of  the  crowd  stands 
a herald  holding  in  his  hands  the  fatal  notice.  He  is  escorted  by  men-at- 
arms,  and  by  the  sovereign’s  representatives  in  judicial  and  administrative 
matters.  Farther  off  can  be  seen  " the  long  stick,”  the  presence  of  which 
was,  according  to  the  custom  of  the  country,  necessary  to  sanction  any 
criminal  measure.  In  the  foreground,  on  the  left,  is  a bookseller’s  shop, 
the  painter  wishing  to  draw  attention  to  the  strict  measures  fettering  the 
printers.

and  of  the  sentiment  which  I intended  to  express.  After  a weary  day  of 
travel,  two  young  musicians,  brother  and  sister — and  orphans — have  stopped 
to  rest  near  an  ancient  tomb.  The  young  girl,  weak  and  sickly,  her  feet 
lacerated  and  bleeding,  reclines  upon  the  knees  of  her  brother;  he  has  taken 
his  violin,  the  tones  of  which,  assuaging  the  sorrow  of  the  young  girl,  are 
lulling  her  to  sleep.  So  much  for  my  subject.  The  moment  is  that  in 
which  the  brother,  filled  with  anxiety,  his  eyes  fixed  on  his  sister,  per- 
ceives with  joy  that  her  burning  and  fevered  eyelids  are  ceasing  to  quiver, 
an  indication  of  the  sleep  which  brings  with  it  oblivion  of  all  grief,  mental 
and  physical. 

“ I hope,  sir,  that  this  little  picture  does  not  fall  far  below  what  you 
desire.  I have  spared  neither  care  nor  work  with  that  object,  having  put 
into  requisition  two  things  which  were  in  my  power,  my  will  and  my 
conscience."

Opus  CCXXIII. 

From  the  Artist. 

Royal  Academy,  1881. 


London  Academy,  May  7,  1881. 

The  picture  which  seems  to  me  to  secure  the  most  complete  and  satisfy- 
ing effect  of  beauty  is  the  Sappho  of  Mr.  Alma-Tadema.  The  model  of 
Mr.  Tadema’s  invention  is  so  entirely  individual  that  it  would  be  difficult 
to  define  with  any  approach  to  precision  the  class  to  which  his  work 
belongs.  On  occasions  when  he  has  undertaken  to  treat  the  human  form 
upon  the  scale  of  life,  he  has  not  always  shown  a preference  for  the  highest 
type  of  beauty ; nor  do  the  characteristic  excellences  of  his  refined  and 
delicate  workmanship  appear  to  full  advantage  in  the  covering  of  large 
surfaces  of  canvas.  But  there  is  a temptation  to  forget  whatever  limita- 
tions his  art  may  own  in  the  keen  enjoj^ment  which  such  a picture  as  the 
Sappho  awakens.  Here,  at  least,  the  wonderful  resources  of  his  brush  are 


52 


employed  upon  material  which  they  can  easily  command.  Mr.  Tadema 
stands  almost  alone  among  artists  who  are  fascinated  by  the  beauty  of 
antique  life,  in  the  strong  feeling  for  outward  nature  which  he  imports 
into  his  design.  His  color,  whether  of  flesh  or  costume,  always  lives  in 
sunlight;  and  the  forms  that  people  the  scenes  of  his  invention  take  an 
added  beauty  from  the  charm  of  the  landscape  that  surrounds  them.  There 
have  been  few  artists  of  any  time  who  have  so  skillfully  combined  this 
sentiment  of  landscape  with  the  severe  definition  of  form.  The  results  of 
wide  archseological  knowledge  are,  in  his  case,  so  lightly  borne  that  they 
mingle  without  any  sense  of  conflict  with  the  fruits  of  direct  observation  of 
nature.  Mr.  Tadema’s  painting  has  always  the  note  of  absolute  vitality. 
I speak  now  not  of  individual  forms  or  faces,  but  of  the  work  as  a whole, 
of  the  quality  of  the  coloring,  of  the  actual  touches  of  the  brush.  In-  the 
extreme  minuteness  of  much  of  his  execution  he  contrives  to  preserve 
admirable  breadth  of  light  and  shade  with  an  unimpaired  strength  and  force 
in  the  local  tints.  There  is  a certain  audacity  in  the  manner  of  his  inven- 
tion which  enables  him  to  carry  his  regard  for  the  vivid  beauty  of  Nature 
into  scenes  and  subjects  that  would,  at  first  sight,  seem  to  reject  any  kind 
of  realistic  treatment.  The  brilliant  fairness  of  white  marble,  the  intense 
blue  of  a sapphire  sea  or  a southern  sky — these  are  among  the  natural 
realities  that  would  seem  to  have  fixed  themselves  in  his  imagination. 
They  have  grown  familiar  in  his  work ; but  their  reappearance  produces 
no  sense  of  fatigue,  for  they  are  imagined  for  us  with  unfailing  sympathy 
and  power.  In  this  respect  the  Sappho  is  perhaps  the  most  characteristic, 
as  it  is  certainly  among  the  most  complete,  of  Mr.  Tadema’s  productions. 
The  invention  of  the  scene  as  a whole,  the  disposition  of  the  figures,  the 
choice  of  attitude  and  gesture,  are  in  the  highest  degree  representative  of 
a style  of  art  that  has  something  more  than  the  dignity  of  genre,  with 
something  less  than  the  formality  of  purely  ideal  design,  recalling  for  us 
the  long-silent  life  of  the  past  in  language  that  has  a familiar  and  homely 
accent,  and  preserving  the  vivid  impression  of  Nature  even  in  the  most 
elaborate  attempts  to  reconstruct  a vanished  civilization. 

J.  Comyns  Carr. 


Saturday  Review. 

The  scene  is  one  of  the  isles  of  Greece,  where  the  “ burning  ” poetess 
loved  and  sung,  perhaps  the  Island  of  Lesbos,  where  Alcaeus  himself  flour- 
ished 600  years  before  the  Christian  era.  The  whole  front  of  the  canvas 
is  occupied  by  the  orchestra  of  a white  marble  theatre  on  a height  over- 
looking the  sea;  on  the  left  are  the  concave  seats  in  double  tier,  each 
inscribed  with  the  name  of  its  owner,  and  in  the  centre  the  head  of  the  steps 
* that  lead  up  to  it  from  the  shore ; beyond  is  a small  grove  of  olive  trees, 
between  whose  trunks  is  seen  the  deep  blue-green  expanse  of  the  sea;  and 
in  the  distance,  on  the  extreme  right,  is  a purple  headland.  The  marble  of 
the  theatre  is  treated  in  a most  astonishing  manner;  it  has  a solidity  which 


S3 


seems  almost  too  faithful ; the  veins  in  the  hewn  seats,  the  yellowish  dis- 
coloration at  the  edge  of  the  joints,  the  stains  of  wind  and  weather,  are 
depicted  with  surpassing  skill.  The  rich,  translucent  white  of  the  marble, 
the  gray-green  foliage  of  the  olives,  and  the  deep,  glowing  hue  of  the  sea, 
form  a scheme  of  color  of  the  loveliest  kind  in  which  to  set  the  figures  of 
the  poetess,  her  attendants  and  the  poet.  Sappho  is  seated  on  one  of  the 
lowest  seats  of  the  semicircular  theatre;  at  her  side  stands  one  of  her 
maidens,  wreathed  with  flowers,  and  before  her,  on  a bronze  pedestal,  rests 
a laurel  wreath.  The  poetess  leans  forward  and  gazes  intently  on  Alcaeus, 
who  is  seated  facing  her  on  a chair  of  wood,  striking  the  chords  of  his  lyre. 
The  attendants  of  Sappho  are  grouped  on  the  marble  seats,  some,  like  their 
mistress,  intent  on  the  rhythm  of  the  poet’s  song,  others  careless  of  it, 
while  one  red-haired  girl  leans  back  with  outspread  arms  on  the  upper  row 
of  seats  and  gazes  seaward,  thinking  apparently  of  some  one  who  lives  on 
yonder  distant  shore  and  sings  as  sweetly  for  her. 

London  Athen.eum,  April  30,  1881. 

Mr.  Alma-Tadema’s  contributions  are  positively  splendid,  and  his  chief 
picture  will  long  be  remembered  by  those  who  see  it.  In  brilliancy  of 
illumination  and  purity  of  coloration,  grace  of  design  and  careful  finish,  to 
say  nothing  of  fine  rendering  of  apt  and  animated  attitudes  and  expressions, 
Sappho  has  hardly  a rival,  and  certainly  not  a superior,  among  his  works. 
The  poetess  is  seated  at  a desk  placed  in  front  of  the  centre  of  an  amphi- 
theatre of  marble  benches,  while  in  the  middle  of  the  chord  which  extends 
between  the  horns  of  the  arc  of  the  amphitheatre  is,  half  seated,  half  re- 
clining, a lyre  in  his  hands,  Alcaeus  the  poet.  The  ardor  of  composition 
pervades  his  dark,  energetic  face,  and  he  looks  intently  and  abstractedly 
forward,  while  his  fingers  sweep  slowly  yet  passionately  the  strings  of  the 
lyre  which  rests  in  his  lap.  His  skin  is  of  pale  gold-brown,  exquisitely  set 
off  by  the  delicate  rose-colored  robe  which  falls  easily  about  him.  The 
object  of  the  poet  is  to  enlist  Sappho’s  support  in  a political  scheme  of 
which  he  is  a leader,  if  not  the  chief  prophet,  and  he  has  come  to  her 
“ school  ” in  Lesbos  with  the  hope  of  securing  another  voice  and  other 
songs  to  advocate  the  views  of  his  party.  We  have  thus  depicted  a political 
as  well  as  poetical  flirtation  between  two  of  the  greatest  lyric  poets  of 
antiquity.

“ A Roman  Emperor — Claudius.” 

68  x 33 

From  the  Artist. 

E.  U.,  1878. 

Dated  1871. 

“ When  the  Praetorian  soldiers  had  killed  Caligula,  his  family  and  the 
members  of  his  household,  they  were  afraid  an  emperor  would  be  thrust 
upon  them  by  the  Senate.  To  ascertain  whether  any  of  the  Imperial  family 
had  not  been  forgotten,  they  returned  to  the  palace  the  next  day,  and 
discovered  Claudius  hidden  behind  a curtain.  They  carried  him  off  to 
their  camp  on  Mount  Aventinus  and  proclaimed  him  emperor,  to  the 
bewilderment  of  all  the  world.  He  was  the  first  emperor  who  had  to  pay 
the  soldiers  for  his  election ; it  was  the  beginning  of  the  end.” 

Of  this  picture  Blackwood’s  Magazine  says:  “And  rising  to  a tragedy 
little  short  of  sublime  is  the  scene  of  the  Emperor  Caligula  lying  murdered 
on  the  ground,  while  the  Pnetorian  guard  pay  mock  homage  to  Claudius, 
found  agonized  with  terror  behind  a curtain.  The  painter’s  realism  here 
serves  him  well.  Less  naturalistic  artists  may  suggest  and  shadow  forth; 
but  in  this  terror-moving  situation  the  eye  looks  on  the  very  deed.” 


From  the  London  Times. 

“ Besides  those  features  of  which  we  have  spoken — his  positiveness  and 
his  loyalty  to  the  subjects  where  his  great  learning  may  find  free  scope — 
he  has  certain  distinctive  qualities  as  a painter  without  which  neither  a 
turn  for  realism  nor  a mastery  of  archaeology  would  have  carried  him  very 
far.  He  has,  first,  extraordinary  dramatic  power;  he  knows  what  situation 
will  best  sum  up  a whole  history,  and  by  what  grouping  of  incidents  and 
accessories  that  situation  may  be  best  conveyed.  He  wishes,  for  instance, 


56 


to  paint  ‘ the  beginning  of  the  end  ’ of  the  Roman  Empire,  and,  with  a true 
instinct,  he  seizes  on  the  moment  when  Caligula  has  been  slain  by  the 
soldiery,  and  when  Claudius,  miserably  hiding  for  his  life,  is  discovered 
and  brought  out  to  be  proclaimed  emperor  by  the  will,  not  of  the  people, 
but  of  the  guards.  That  is  a scene  which  embodies  an  epoch ; and  what 
pictorial  possibilities  it  has ! The  Praetorians,  the  bowing  women,  the 
officer  who  has  found  the  ghastly,  shrinking  fugitive  and  who  bends  to  the 
ground  before  him  with  half-ironical  obeisance ; the  fugitive  himself,  and 
all  the  splendors  of  the  palace — here,  indeed,  are  the  elements  of  a picture. 
But  to  do  them  justice  requires  nothing  less  than  Mr.  Tadema’s  second 
artistic  gift — that  of  extraordinary  technical  power,  the  power  which  be- 
longs to  him  pre-eminently  as  a painter.  His  draughtsmanship  is  strong 
and  masterly.”

Gleyre’s  diary  gives  an  interesting  description  of  how  and  where  this 
conception  first  came  to  him : “ It  was  on  the  21st  of  March,  1835,  during 

a beautiful  twilight  on  the  Nile,  abreast  of  Abydos.  The  sky  was  so  pure, 
the  water  so  calm,  that,  after  the  brain  excitement  to  which  I had  aban- 
doned myself  all  the  day,  it  would  have  been  difficult  for  me  to  have  said 
whether  I was  sailing  on  the  stream  or  through  the  air’s  infinite  space.  As 
I turned  toward  the  setting  sun,  I thought  I saw,  in  fact  I did  see,  a bark 
most  happy  in  form,  in  which  were  a group  of  angels,  clothed  with  such 
elegance  and  posed  in  such  calm  and  noble  attitudes  that  I was  enchanted. 
Insensibly  they  approached,  and  I was  able  to  distinguish  their  voices ; 
they  chanted  a chorus  of  divine  music.  The  bark  stopped  just  beyond  a 
cluster  of  palms  planted  on  the  bank.  The  sparkling  surface  of  the  river 
repeated  so  exactly  these  charming  objects  that  they  seemed  double. 
Never  during  my  life  will  I forget  it.  The  triple  harmony  of  form,  color 
and  sound  was  complete.”  Eight  years  later  he  transferred  this  vision  to 
the  canvas.

ship  was  covered  with  the  waves ; but  he  was  asleep.

we  perish  ! 

And  he  saith  unto  them,  Why  are  ye  fearful,  O ye  of  little  faith?  Then 
he  arose,  and  rebuked  the  winds  and  the  sea ; and  there  was  a great  calm.

This  great  painting,  which  Eugene  Delacroix  described  as  the  “ most 
sincerely  religious  picture  of  the  XIXth  century,”  is  at  the  same  time 
simple,  imposing,  and  elegant  in  composition. 

The  actual  painting  of  the  work  extended  over  a period  of  several  years, 
as  we  learn  from  Corot’s  own  letters  ;*  its  surface  is  so  coated  with  succes- 


* Corot  said,  in  letters  to  his  friend  Constant  Dutilleux,  a distinguished  painter  of  Arras : 
Sept.  23,  1851.  “ I am  at  the  moment  working  upon  an  historical  landscape  embellished 
with  a St.  Sebastian  succored  by  some  holy  women.  And  with  care  and  work  I hope,  under 
the  guidance  of  Heaven,  to  make  a lovely  picture.” 

August  29,  1852.  “ As  soon  as  my  St.  Sebastian  is  out  of  the  fog  and  I have  become  more 
quiet,  the  ladies  have  my  promise  to  pay  you  a visit  this  winter.” 

Just  at  this  time  Corot  was  not  satisfied  with  his  work,  and  was  doubtful  about  exhibiting 
it  in  the  Exposition  of  1853;  indeed,  he  had  scratched  it  from  his  list,  but  some  of  his  friends 
persuaded  him  to  change  his  determination,  and  he  writes: 

October  10,  1852.  “ I have  consulted  about  the  ‘ St.  Sebastian,’  and  they  have  decided  me 

to  continue  it,  and  risk  its  exhibition.” 

January  14,  1853.  “ I am  working  like  an  ogre.” 

February  4,  1853.  “ My  ‘ St.  Sebastian  ’ is  nearly  finished;  let  us  hope  it  will  prove  a 

success.” 

At  the  close  of  the  Exhibition  the  picture  returned  to  his  studio,  and  later  in  the  year 
Corot  again  worked  upon  it. 

Sept.  25,  1853.  “ The  ‘ St.  Sebastian  ’ advances,  but  slowly.  I have  been  obliged  to  turn 
aside  to  dash  off  some  things  for  amateurs,  so  that  I shall  not  be  able  to  visit  you  until  the 
first  of  January.”

sive  thicknesses  of  paint  that  already  it  presents  the  enamel  of  a painting 
of  the  last  century.  Indeed,  regarding  the  intrinsic  qualities  of  its  execu- 
tion only,  this  chief  d’ccuvre  can  be  well  compared  to  a fine  picture  by 
Rembrandt. 

The  “St.  Sebastian”  is  sober  in  tone,  in  keeping  with  the  subject,  yet 
rich  in  the  coloring  of  the  accessories. 

The  principal  group  cannot  fail  to  capture  attention,  nor  can  one  fail  to 
admire  the  grace  and  freshness  of  the  angels,  so  light,  so  aerial,  flying 
among  the  tops  of  the  trees,  and  bearing  the  attributes  of  the  martyr. 
This  delicate  motive  furnishes  an  effect  of  most  tender  opposition,  and 
presents  the  further  advantage  of  filling  equally,  yet  with  different  senti- 
ments, both  the  upper  and  lower  half  of  the  picture. 

The  background  is  in  itself  very  interesting,  and  the  place  it  assumes  in 
the  frame  denotes  in  the  artist  an  innate  taste  for  the  picturesque  and  a 
thorough  knowledge  of  the  value  of  lines.  The  piercings  of  light  are  most 
discreetly  arranged  to  give  full  value  to  the  principal  clearing,  and  the 
leafage  of  the  trees,  hanging  from  the  branches  covered  with  their  many- 
hued  barks,  is  so  light  and  open,  you  feel  that  other  angels  may  at  any 
instant  appear. 

Corot,  throughout  the  whole  of  his  long  life,  abandoned  the  study  of  the 
old  masters  and  devoted  himself  to  the  study  of  nature  alone,  wherein  he 
unwittingly  followed  the  great  Italian  masters  Correggio,  Titian,  and  Paul 
Veronese,  and  acquired  with  them  the  same  charm  and  magic  of  compo- 
sition. 

Our  great  writer  Theophile  Sylvestre,  in  his  “ Histoire  des  Artists 
vivants,”  in  using  the  “ St.  Sebastian  ” as  the  best  example  with  which  to 
explain  Corot’s  technique,  has  said : “In  a landscape  there  are  no  more 

two  identical  color  values  to  be  found,  than  are  there  in  Nature  two  faces, 
two  clouds,  two  trees,  two  lights,  two  drops  of  water,  absolutely  alike. 
....  Let  us  take  as  an  example  of  his  work  his  picture  of  this  year,  ‘ St. 
Sebastian  but  first  let  us  understand  its  general  intent.  Two  holy  women 
draw  out  the  arrows  from  the  body  of  the  martyr  and  support  him  in  his 
agony.  He  lies  in  the  heart  of  a mysterious  wood,  in  the  shadow  of  mighty 
trees  growing  at  the  base  of  a hill  which  rises  like  a Calvary.  His  execu- 
tioners have  abandoned  the  martyr  in  this  gloomy  spot  where  no  prying 
eye  could  discover  them,  and  are  just  seen,  their  horses  in  a walk,  passing 
over  a little  summit  into  a valley  which  suddenly  plunges  beneath  the 
line  of  the  horizon.  But  the  two  holy  women  have  heard  the  groans  of  the 
victim  and  watched  the  departure  of  his  torturers.  Two  angels,  light  as 
butterflies  and  bright  as  spirits,  fly  through  the  shivering  leaves,  bearing 
the  palm  and  crown.  Corot  has  poured  out  all  his  talent  and  all  his  heart 
into  this  picture,  so  religious,  so  touching. 

“ In  it  the  division  of  values,  according  to  the  principle  I have  set  forth 
above,  is  comprised  as  follows : The  sky  very,  very  light ; the  angels  very 
light;  the  head-dress  of  the  woman  holding  the  vase,  light;  the  cavaliers, 


64 


less  light;  the  foliage  of  the  trees,  dark;  the  hill  which  rises  to  the  right  of 
the  spectator,  more  dark;  the  full-grown  trunks  of  the  trees,  very  dark. 
And  bear  in  mind  that  each  of  these  divisions  is  subdivided  ad  infinitum.” 
*********** 

The  picture  was  returned  to  Corot’s  studio  from  the  Exhibition  of  1867, 
at  the  time  of  the  year  when  the  landscapists  seek  the  fields  and  the  woods, 
and  Corot  was  never  the  last  to  abandon  his  four  walls.  When  the  leaves 
had  again  fallen  the  master  once  more  saw  his  “ St.  Sebastian,”  and  was  at 
once  struck  with  the  absence,  or  rather  insufficiency,  of  air,  arising  from 
the  contracted  opening  in  the  trees,  which,  moreover,  was  too  square. 

He  at  once  enlarged  it  below,  forming  a kind  of  triangle,  which  better 
corresponded  to  the  image  of  rays  of  light.  This  happy  idea  was  hailed  by 
his  friends.  Necessarily,  this  modification  led  to  many  others,  not  only  in 
the  landscape  bordering  this  flow  of  light,  but  also  in  some  of  the  details 
of  the  figures. 

In  this  state  the  picture  remained  at  his  studio  until  1871,  when  Corot 
presented  it  to  the  lottery  held  in  the  interior  of  the  yet  unfinished  Opera 
House,  in  aid  of  the  orphans  left  by  the  Franco-German  war,  and,  unlike 
some  artists  whose  pictures  were  there,  he  refused  to  accept  the  large  sum 
offered  him  in  numbered  tickets. 

The  picture  was  drawn  by  a foreigner,  from  whom  I purchased  it.  Un- 
fortunately its  great  size  prevented  my  keeping  it,  and  I yielded  it  to  M. 
Durand-Ruel.  I recall  now  also  that  it  was  offered  to  the  Administration 
of  the  Beaux  Arts  for  a very  reasonable  price,  but  they  made  no  answer. 

I had  noticed  that  both  the  canvas  and  stretcher  were  square  on  top,  and 
that  the  circular  form  was  given  by  the  frame  only.  The  artist,  having 
received  an  impression,  more  or  less  well-founded,  that  this  shape  would 
aid  its  sale,  readily  consented,  when  requested  in  1872,  to  make  the  picture 
rectangular.  Thus  we  may  say  that  it  is  seen  to-day  in  its  third  state,  and 
certainly  it  has  lost  nothing  in  the  last  transformation. 

In  conclusion,  I would  mention  that  this  picture  was  photographed  in  its 
first  state  at  the  Exposition  of  1853  (10 )4  x 6J/2  inches),  to  illustrate,  with 
other  plates,  the  two  numbers  in  folio  relating  to  Corot  in  the  “ Histoire 
des  Artists  vivants  franqais  etrangers.  Etudes  d’apres  nature  par  Theo- 
phile  Sylvestre,  1853.” 

It  was  also  engraved  on  wood  at  the  same  time  and  for  the  same  publi- 
cation in  4to  (size  6Y2  x 4 J4  inches). 

Finally,  in  1873-4,  M.  Durand-Ruel  had  it  photographed  and  etched  by 
M.  H.  Lemaire  (in  size  5)4  x 3)4  inches)  for  his  important  publication, 
unfortunately  but  little  known,  where  are  to  be  found  most  of  the  im- 
portant pictures  of  the  contemporaneous  French  school. 

I would  add  that  Corot,  in  1852,  made  at  Arras,  for  his  friend  Ct.  Dutil- 
leux,  a beautiful  crayon  of  its  first  state,  which  now  belongs  to  me  (14  x 
10F2  inches). 

At  the  Exposition  of  1867,  M.  Pothey  obtained  from  his  illustrious 


65 


master  an  original  drawing  (ioj4  x 6)4  inches),  rounded  at  the  top,  to 
insert,  under  a photo-typographic  form,  in  his  fine  publication  “ L’Auto- 
graphe  an  Salon.”  This  represents  the  second  state  of  the  work,  with  the 
large  opening  in  the  trees  showing  the  sky  and  distance. 

Finally,  to  show  how  this  subject  haunted  the  brain  of  the  great  artist,  I 
will  mention  a little  sketch  traced  from  nature  in  the  Forest  of  Fontaine- 
bleau at  the  “ Carrefour  of  Charlemagne,”  in  which  Corot  has  placed  the 
“ St.  Sebastian  ” group. 

Upon  seeing  this  magnificent  cluster  of  moving  trees,  one  of  our  most 
talented  artists  exclaimed  with  fervor:  “If  the  Parthenon  had  been  deco- 
rated with  landscapes,  Corot  would  have  been  the  sculptor.” 

(Signed)  Alfred  Robaut, 

October  15,  1883. 

Among  the  drawings  found  in  a portfolio  I bought  at  Corot’s  posthu- 
mous sale  are : A sketch  in  crayon  of  the  composition.  Also  a pencil 

drawing  (in  folio)  of  an  Academic  study  of  the  figure  St.  Sebastian,  and 
on  the  top  of  the  sheet  is  written,  “ I have  been  advised  not  to  place  them 
too  high — M.  Cibot,  historical  painter.”  That  is,  Corot’s  friends,  including 
Cibot,  who  was  the  last  admitted  to  his  studio,  advised  him  to  place  the 
group  of  three  figures  very  near  the  bottom  of  his  composition.

3 2 X 22 

From  the  Collection  of  the  Due  de  Morny,  Paris. 

Two  centuries  ago,  the  head  of  a noted  religious  Order,  encamped  before 
Cairo,  performed  the  miracle  of  riding  into  the  city  over  a roadway 
formed  of  glass  bottles  and'  vases,  not  one  of  which — tradition  says — was 
broken. 

Every  year  this  miracle  is  commemorated  by  the  Head  of  the  same 
Order,  on  his  way  to  Mecca,  riding  over  the  same  roadway,  formed  of 
religious  fanatics  whose  faith  is  expected  to  shield  them  from  injury. 
Three  thousand  five  hundred  bodies  are  required  to  compose  this  roadway.

“ The  Angelus.” 

18  x 12*4 

From  the  D.  P.  Sellars  Collection,  London. 

Original  Design. 

In  1859  Millet  finished  his  painting  of  “ The  Angelus.”  In  this  truly 
original  picture,  Millet  wished  to  give  an  impression  of  music;  he  wanted 
the  voices  of  the  country,  and  even  the  church  bells,  to  be  heard.  “Truth 
of  expression  will  do  it,”  said  he.  This  was  one  of  his  favorite  pictures; 
in  it  he  revived  his  childhood’s  sensations.  As  day  dies,  two  peasants,  a 
man  and  a woman,  hear  the  Angelus ; they  rise,  stop  work,  and  standing 
bareheaded,  recite,  with  eyes  cast  down,  the  words  of  the  prayer,  Angelus 
Domini  nuntiavit  Maria.  The  man,  a true  peasant  of  the  plain,  his  head 
covered  by  a mass  of  straight,  short  hair  like  a felt  hat,  prays  silently;  the 
woman  is  bent  and  full  of  devotion.  Into  it  Millet  put  the  whole  strength 
of  his  color.  When  I saw  it  for  the  first  time  it  was  almost  finished. 
Millet  said  to  me:  “What  do  you  think  of  it?” 

“ It  is  the  Angelus ! ” I cried. 

“It  is  indeed.  You  can  hear  the  bells?”  And  he  added:  “I  am  con- 
tented; you  understand  it.  It  is  all  I ask.” 

From  Alfred  Sensier.

As  the  authorities  declined  to  permit  the  great  work  by  Correggio  to  be

this  elaborate  and  careful  drawing,  as  the  only  means  of  securing  the 
spirit  of  the  original,  it  having  been  for  years  his  ambition  to  make  an 
engraving  of  this  picture  as  the  last  great  work  of  his  life.

The  marble  seat,  on  which  the  young  people’s  fate  was  decided,  was 
called  by  the  grandchildren  of  the  wedded  pair,  who  lived  to  old  age  in 
love  and  harmony,  “ the  bench  of  the  question.” 

From  “ A Question,”  by  George  Ebers. 

London,  December  22,  1884. 

My  Dear  Mr.  Walters  : 

Since  you  left  London  some  months  ago,  I have  all  the  time,  nearly, 
been  busy  to  satisfy  your  wish  to  possess  a picture  of  mine  representing 
the  two  figures  of  “ The  Question,”  which  suggested  the  charming  idyl  of 
that  name,  by  Geo.  Ebers,  you  know  so  well.  To  enable  me  to  make  a 
picture  of  the  same  group,  I have  taken  up  that  book  and  tried  to  find 
there  the  necessary  ground  to  make  the  work  interesting  to  me  and  give 
it  an  aim.  In  fact,  it  has  now  come  to  this : I painted  a picture,  Ebers 
wrote  a novel  upon  my  picture,  and  I have  now  painted  a picture  upon  this 
novel.  The  title  of  the  picture  is,  therefore,  the  names  of  the  hero  and 
heroine  of  the  book,  namely,  Xanthe  and  Phaon. 

I have  made  the  boy  as  noblerlooking  and  near  the  subject  as  I could, 
and  the  girl  in  her  role  dissatisfied  with  him,  and  full  of  the  effect  produced 
by  the  stories  told  to  her  about  him,  more  sad  than  anything  else. 

The  seat  was,  according  to  Ebers,  put  on  a dike  which  united  the  property 
of  the  two  brothers,  and  was  rather  neglected,  so  I have  put  over  the  seat 
a Stella  on  which  are  the  names  of  the  two  brothers,  the  proprietors  of 
the  two  properties,  and  a branch  of  olive  in  sign  of  peace,  besides  a bas- 
relief  representing  the  wealth  of  the  two  properties  personified. 

Leading  downward  is  a staircase,  up  which,  as  you  can  see  by  the  fallen 
rose-leaves,  Xanthe  has  arrived  with  the  roses  gathered  for  her  work,  and 
in  passing  by  the  tank,  I suppose  she  has  thrown  a handful  of  loose  rose- 
leaves  of  the  too  full-blown  roses  into  the  water. 

I do  hope  you  may  be  satisfied,  as  that  is  the  only  wish  that  made  me 
work  hard;  and  could  it  be  otherwise?  as  you  must  always  look  at  this 
picture  as  a result  of  your  last  visit  to  my  studio,  at  which  I felt  so  truly 
gratified. 

I am,  dear  Mr.  Walters, 

Yours  very  sincerely, 

(Signed)  L.  Alma-Tadema.
